Objective To scientifically assess the degree of " overwork" and its influencing factors of doctors and nurses at county hospitals. Methods Six county hospitals were selected as the research objects. Descriptive analysis, chi-square test and ordered multi-class regression were used to analyze the degree of " overwork" and its influencing factors of doctors and nurses. Results 48. 3％ (156 / 323)of the doctors at these hospitals were working more than 60 hours per week. Work hours per week of the doctors were significantly longer than those of the nurses. At the same time, the workload of doctors based on the fatigue self-assessment scale was also significantly higher than that of the nurses, while 61. 9％ (200 / 323) of the doctors were exposed to a very high workload, and so were 33. 3％ (118 / 354) of the nurses. There were significant differences in the workload of doctors and nurses in terms of their gender, age, education level, seniority and number of children. And the work hours per week were an important factor affecting the workload of doctors and nurses. Conclusions We should formulate a reasonable work hours for doctors and nurses, especially focusing on young and middle-aged doctors.

OBJECTIVE[corrected] To assess the specificity and applicability of direct PCR sequencing in the detection of point mutations in hepatitis B virus (HBV) associated with drug resistance.

METHODSSerum samples were obtained from 120 patients with hepatitis B treated with nucleoside analogus for at least 2 years to detect the point mutations in HBV genome in association with drug resistance using nested PCR and direct DNA sequencing.

RESULTSForty out of the 120 patients were found to have one or two point mutations associated with drug resistance, including 17 with L180M and M204V/I mutations (42.5%), 10 with M204V/I mutation (25%), 8 with N236T mutation (20%), 3 with L180M mutation (7.5%), and 1 with both A181V/T and N236T mutations (2.5%), and 1 with A181V/T mutation(2.5%).

CONCLUSIONDNA sequencing is a good method to detect all known point mutations associated with HBV drug resistance.

Objective:To evaluate the implementation of the China Healthcare Improvement Initiative(CHII)from 2018 to 2020 in 143 tertiary public hospitals in China.Methods:In March 2019 and from January to March in 2021, 143 tertiary public hospitals in 31 provinces of China were investigated using the unified " medical institution questionnaire Ⅰ" and " medical institution Questionnaire Ⅱ" . The data were collected by means of hospital self-report and expert on-site scoring. Descriptive and inferential statistical analysis were used to analyze the data, and the data of two cross-sectional surveys were compared and analyzed.Results:The average score rate of implementing CHII in 143 sample hospitals in 2020 was 88.9%, which was higher than that in 2018(84.4%). The appointment diagnosis and treatment system, clinical pathway management system, day service, smart hospital and humanistic service were significantly improved. In 2020, the average score rate of logistics service, high quality nursing service and clinical pathway management system was higher than 95%, while the average score rate of day service, telemedicine system and medical social work system was lower than 85%. The total score rate of general hospitals was significantly higher than that of specialized hospitals( P<0.001). In 2020, the proportion of hospitals with full marks in 29 secondary indicators(74.4%)was more than 80%, reaching the standard level. Conclusions:The implementation level of CHII in tertiary public hospitals in China has been improved continuously and made significant progress, but some dimensions and indicators need to be further improved.

Objective:To analyze the practice and experience of " patient-centered, popularizing multi-disciplinary team(MDT) mode" in medical institutions, and to put forward reasonable suggestions and opinions for medical institutions to further improve and popularize MDT mode.Methods:Based on the evaluation of China Healthcare Improvement Initiative, 40 typical cases of MDT in medical institutions were collected, and descriptive analysis and textual analysis were carried out on the cases.Results:There were more specialized hospitals carrying out MDT, the application scope of MDT services was constantly expanding, and the management system and diagnosis and treatment process were constantly optimized.Conclusions:The mode of MDT in China is in the stage of exploration and development. In the promotion process, it is necessary to give full play to the role of information means, establish scientific and reasonable cost measurement and charge standard, and improve the enthusiasm of medical institutions and medical personnel to participate in MDT.

Objective:To understand the practice of humanistic care and social worker voluntary service in public hospitals in China.Methods:From January to March 2021, 38 typical cases concerning " medical social worker and volunteer system" and " building a harmonious doctor-patient relationship through humanistic service" were collected by relying on the evaluation of China Healthcare Improvement Initiative. By means of statistics on the frequency of the subject words in the cases, hotspots of these hospitals in " paying attention to medical humanistic care and promoting social work voluntary service" were identified.Results:By classifying the keywords of the 38 cases, the hotspots mainly focused on strengthening the construction and management of social work volunteer platform and team, providing convenient and high-quality services, integrating humanistic care into diagnosis and treatment services, and building characteristic brand projects.Conclusions:The concept of humanistic care should be integrated into the hospital culture construction, the standardized and institutionalized development of humanistic care and volunteer work in the hospital should be promoted. Supporting measures should be introduced to promote the professional and stable development of talent team, and the routine service system should be established based on the needs assessment of both doctors and patients.
